The telephone and coffee machine were both broken in the room. The room itself is quite dated. My sister stayed in another room that was a bit newer and nothing was broken as far as I could tell. The front desk never seemed to answer the phone and checking in took over an hour with a line out the door with one poor soul checking everyone in. In the meantime there were plenty of people around the rest of the resort that should probably be cross trained in the event of rushes if they don’t want to hire more people. The recreational area was nice though and lots of pools in the area and everyone was friendly when you talk with them.

Thank you for the feedback. The resort is in the process of updating all the units and I'm sorry you got one of the older ones. The front desk needs to do better at correcting those issues. I'll pass this along to the hotel management.

Lovely gem

Enjoyed our stay. The resort was beautiful, the room was nice, and the pool options were wonderful. The pools with kids were very busy and loud, so we opted for the adult only pool which was nice and relaxing.

The staff was friendly, room was fine although the bathroom door didn’t shut correctly. The pictures are a bit deceiving. Not as nice and modern as they look. I’d prob stay again tho. VRBO host was super kind, pools were pretty.

We specifically asked for a ground floor when we booked 1 1/2 months prior. As two 70 year olds we didn’t want to deal with stairs. Instead, we were assigned a room that was two flights of stairs down, basically in the basement. The window looked out to a tall retaining wall. Also, no elevator. Once inside we had to move a heavy wooden coffee table to access the sofa bed. It took two of us to move. We tried to call front desk to complain about the stairs but they phones didn’t work nor did they answer the text I sent. We had to drive back to reception hoping for a new room. Unfortunately they were booked and could only apologize. No accommodation offered. Internet was also intermittent due to room below ground level.Although the room itself was fine (and quiet) I would advise anyone who asks for a ground floor to grill the reception staff if that’s what you are actually getting. The resort is huge and not entirely walkable. Would only stay again if the host/reception can guarantee special accommodation.

Thanks for your honest review Kathy. I completely understand the frustration about the accessibility of the room. The resort gets very busy during the summer but you still should have a better experience with getting to your room and around the resort. Next time I will work harder to ensure a more accessible room and better experience. Thank you again for staying and for the feedback.

We stayed in a 1 bed / 1 bath villa by the Mountain Springs pool with 2 adults and 2 teens. The villa itself is better suited for just 2 people — it felt a bit tight for four. Parking was easy and the resort amenities were great. The property is far from downtown San Diego and the beaches, but you could easily spend your whole trip on site without leaving. A grocery store is about a 10-minute drive away. Overall, it’s a beautiful resort with plenty to do. Just note that it operates as a timeshare — all communication is handled through resort staff rather than a direct host once booked. We would stay again.

We have stayed multiple times over the years at The Welk Resort in 1,2 & 3 bedroom units. It has always been great. We were disappointed with the kitchen supplies and lack of response from housekeeping. Very unusual. As we age, the parking is more of a challenge. It is a ways away and there are no elevators so pace yourself. Over all the unit was clean, quiet and comfortable. Hoping to stay again.

For the most part, everything was great! The room was very clean and the owner was wonderful with communication. My biggest complaint is that the restaurants and shops on site were often closed for no reason. It was about a 15 minute drive to the closest grocery store and restaurants, which wasn’t a huge deal, just a bit inconvenient at times. The Monday afternoon Farmer’s Market was so much fun. My children also enjoyed the pools and water slides. It was a fun resort for our family this vacation, but next time we’ll probably aim to be a little closer to the beach & restaurants. Thanks for a fun trip!

Perfect spot

A little trouble finding our condo in the wee hours of the morning upon check-in, but the staff were terrific, and took the time to lead us there. Perfect spot, just across the street from rec center with pools, water slide, and snack bar. Overlooks the golf course. Short walk to fitness center and Starbucks. All necessary amenities in kitchen. Only downcheck was low toilet for senior knees and grab bars would have been nice. Staff was accomondating on the no-stairs condo. Would definitely stay again!

Mostly great with a few issues.

The resort and villa were great however the pool and rec center closest to our villa were closed for renovations. When I had originally booked I did notice that but at the time it was supposed to be completed by our arrival so I thought it would be fine but it was apparently extended to the end of June. Since we were so far away from everything it made it inconvenient getting to and from a different pool. Also, the shower in the room was terrible. All the fixtures need to be replaced. It was difficult to turn on/off and the diverter didn’t work so water still came out of the faucet when it all should have been diverted to the showerhead and it made the water pressure almost nil. Other than that the location was great, rest of room was awesome and the resort amenities were fantastic.

Thanks for taking the time to review the property. I do apologize for the renovations on the pool areas. That is frustrating, especially when there should have been something very close. I'll be sure to pass along your feedback about the need for some updates in the rooms. Always great to hear those comments from guests. Thanks for great communication throughout the process!.

Kind of disappointing

The front desk tried to charge us a extra 135 dollars for more fees or whatever, then get to our room and there was NO oven, we were there for my daughter's wedding, we were fixing all the rehearsal dinner food, we were told there we were going to have a oven in our room, to which that wasn't the case, we scrambled and had to make due with a TINY ELECTRIC stove, it took over an hour just to heat up water ! That was pretty upsetting considering our event.There was NO ROOM SERVICE whatsoever, we took our own trash out, got our own towels, the front desk was supposed to call me to correct things, but never heard from them as well ! Also was a little upset with the ridiculous prices, two lunches cost well over 260 plus dollars, and we only ordered like 4-6 beers and two plates one of the days, then the next day we thought we were cutting it back and it was even worse, not to mention the two 7 oz beers at the pool that was over 21 dollars, we were in a pinch on the food end of things, this is why we ate at their bar and grill on the property, so overall rating between 0-5 give it a 3 - wouldn't stay there again.

Thanks for the feedback and sorry for the inconveniences. The food at the resort can be pretty pricey. Most units have an oven but realt sorry yours didn't. Still hope the wedding was a success!

Excellent resort property. The condo unit and amenities were clean, new with all we needed. We appreciate Chad's good communication. When we arrived for the 4p.m. check in time, the resort check-in counter was over-crowded with very long lines. We were advised to come back in 90-120 minutes, which meant that we missed some afternoon pool time. Otherwise great!

Place had everything you need to eat in bbq's, stove/oven with pots and pans, fridge/freezer, toaster, coffee, dishwasher... Lots of stuff for the kids to do onsite pools wirh waterslides, rec rooms, and daily activities. You never have to leave if you did not want to. Room was spacious for 2 adults and 2 kids, though 2 queens would have been perfect. Sleeper sofa worked but for the price point should be 2 beds. Overall we love this place and will return. Host did what they could to meet our request and it was a busy time. Host responded quickly to any messages i left and check in went smooth, no extra charges. If you are willing to sit through a time share session you can save on your next stay or apply credit towards another vacation.
